Good afternoon folks,

I am trying to get BBcode to work in my wiki. I have looked over this: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/195604/ and it did not provide me with much help, further the EE documents are not very helpful.

Here is the text in my wiki article:
```
[size=30]Welcome to the Wiki.[/size]

Below is what you need to know to get started.

[b]Creating a page[b]
```
and my preferences:

Text Formatting for Articles: Xhtml
HTML Formatting for Articles: Allow only safe HTML

The Create a page is bolded however the “Welcome” is the same page size.

Is there a way to enable the other bbcode tags in a wiki article?

Thanks for any help,
Nick

Hi Nick,

While the Wiki supports most BBCode tags, there are a few that it doesn’t support such as size, list, and table. As far as I know, no, there isn’t current a way to expand the BBCode parser’s vocabulary in EE, though that might be possible using some custom development.

Is there anything else I can help you with?
